Felix straightened, eyes narrowed behind the viewport as he searched the area. It had only been a brief twinkle of brilliance and for a moment he doubted whether he had seen anything at all. Then it came again, a sunbright sparkle as of light reflecting from some bright surface. It came from the far distance between Tycho and the station and, he knew, it could only have been caused by some moving object. Echlan had seen it too. Before Felix could report he heard the sergeant's voice. "Unknown object approaching station on bearing three twenty-five. Distance about five miles." "Message received," said a woman's voice. "Switch to combat channel." >>> Creasing to top edge of backcover; Pen to interior front cover; Size: 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall. Book.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. This introductory text emphasises physical principles, rather than the mathematics. Each topic begins with a discussion of the physical characteristics of the motion or system. The mathematics is kept as clear as possible, and includes elegant mathematical descriptions where possible. Designed to provide a logical development of the subject, the book is divided into two sections, vibrations followed by waves. A particular feature is the inclusion of many examples, frequently drawn from everyday life, along with more cutting-edge ones. Each chapter includes problems ranging in difficulty from simple to challenging and includes hints for solving problems. Numerous worked examples included throughout the book.

St. Petersburg, founded by Peter the Great, is a city marked by its artifice and storied past, serving as a backdrop for political and artistic visionaries. This award-winning narrative history captures the city's evolution from its establishment in a swampy war zone in 1703 to its pivotal role in dismantling Soviet power and ushering Russia into the twenty-first century. The author highlights the city's unparalleled upheavals, violence, and suffering during the first half of the 20th century. Extensively researched yet accessible, the book explores Petersburg's political, social, economic, architectural, cultural, and intellectual history, detailing significant global events and the lives of remarkable figures like Catherine the Great, Fedor Dostoevsky, Alexander Pushkin, Anna Akhmatova, and Anatoly Sobchak. It emphasizes the city's crucial role in connecting Russia to the West, modernizing the nation, and fostering civil society, all while painting a vivid picture of a St. Petersburg shaped by war, revolution, and artistic expression. In December 2005, it received the prestigious Antsiferov Prize in Russia for the best book by a foreign author about the city.

Softcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. This textbook on optics provides an introduction to key concepts of wave optics and light propagation. It uniquely makes extensive use of Fourier methods and the angular-spectrum approach, especially to provide a unified approach to Fraunhofer and Fresnel diffraction. A recurring theme is that simple building blocks such as plane and spherical waves can be summed to construct useful solutions. The text pays particular attention to analysing topics in contemporary optics such as propagation, dispersion, laser beams and wave guides, apodisation, tightly-focused vector fields, unconventional polarization states, and light-matter interactions. Throughout the text, the principles are applied through worked examples, and the book is copiously illustrated with more than 240 figures. The 200 end-of-chapter exercises offer further opportunities for testing the reader's understanding.
